Ikram Aliskerov favored over Brunno Ferreira lean UFC Fight Night: Fiziev vs Torres · June 21, 2026
strikinggood grapplingsolid

Picked because the analyst sees more paths to victory for him, while flagging that an early opponent knockout is a real live possibility.

A good striker with good forward pressure, working the jab and following it with the cross, and able to counter-strike moving in either direction. Good kicks and knees, thrown with disguise so it's hard to tell which is coming. Solid grappler with good takedowns, effective ground and pound, and a good submission arsenal he's willing to attack -- he can also simply hold position and grind if he chooses, which the analyst suggests as a smart first-round approach against this specific power-heavy opponent.
